Future career in PUZZLES

We got to rest in the morning for a while which was so nice and refreshing, meeting up with Anne, another person Dr. Hill lived with (Ludo's ex-girl friend), and her son Nicolas (Ludo and Anne's 20 something yr old son) and her boyfriend. We met up with them for lunch, they made fun of laughing cow cheese advertisements, and they showed us the history of Lille. That afternoon we visited Ludo in his "office". He works for the state as an archaeologist and we got to see all the artifacts in storage and the lab.  I think I could be a ceramic specialist. The one thing Ludo said you needed to have if you wanted to work with ceramics is a passion for puzzles. DONE. I'm a puzzle freak. In the lab all of the pieces of ceramics were being put back together, with glue and tape, to recreate the original dishes. All day, people put the pieces to these puzzles back together. That's their job (well not really there is more to it but that is definitely one big part). 

So of course I left feeling reassured about my potential future in archaeology. The horrible feeling I had had the night before was still there, it just changed into something else. I don't know if it was for the best though. I say I felt horrible that night, but really it was terrifying. Terrifying because I know I was realizing the answers to questions and beginning to discover just what I will have  to do to really and truly follow the way in the manner I have always envisioned, which is terrifying but also exciting. Although I think I'll let my terror/excitement rest until I get back home…or Taize…or my time alone in Les Eyzies…or now.
